This is a coming of age story at several levels.  There are teens as the main focus who are searching for their identities as well as adults who are "coming of age" with their own gender identity.  I found the characters funny and delightful to read about and although Mitchell isn't a liberal place there were many places of allyship in this town that was hopeful but I felt maybe not realistic.  Overall a great read.
